He looks pin-chested and fog-heaved to me. Not even good enough for bear bait.






How much you want for em'?

He aint mine,belongs to a neighbor that I think give way too much money for him,they caint do anything with him so he is down here,gonna see if I can take some of the buck outa him,he is a 3 year old out of Oklahoma,been looking at his papers,I dont reconize any of the names,but never was much on papered stock.
If he aint a outlaw,I might trade for him.
good luck

My hippie neighbors have a billy goat I could deal them out of, that and a couple of rez dogs should be a fair trade. Very Happy

You must have a lot of luck Very Happy . If it was my luck, the colt would've tangled himself in the halter and leadrope that's hanging from the fence Smile .

Thanks for posting, and I hope you come out ahead on your prospect. Keep us updated on his progress!

I held my tongue when I first saw this post for a few reasons..but after some time to think about him and seeing the second pic I hate to say it but I like him!....this is based on nothing but his looks.....I do not however like him as a western horse, I think he would look smashing in english tack. I also thing english would suite him a bit more from his body build. I would love to see a few more conformation shots of him tho. There is also something about his eye that makes me wonder about his personality! He looks like a thinker to me. Depending on what job he will have in life this could be good! I can't tell for sure but in last pic he looks a bit long in toe and short on heel. Other than that he looks like he would be a fun horse to ride "once he was broke" He looks to have clean legs of good bone and a nice over all build him, I would love to see him after 6 months of riding tho. I'm betting he will fill out some and really look less narrow.

I think it is his pasterns that are really sloped, makes his foot look longer.
I kinda like him too.

His ears are certainly back on his rider, tho.
Does that mean the rider is bothering him? Wink
